Sunt un adolescent in cautarea caii potrivite in viata..teoretic am gasit-o deja..practic mai am de lucru.Doua din pasiunile mele..de fapt cele mai mari sunt filosofia si SF-ul.Sunt cam timid..Stiti ce se spune despre timizi?"Timizii vor mosteni lumea,nu si fata".Sper sa demonstrez contrariul.Sunt destul de tolerant,mai tolerant decat majoritatea ar spune..dar daca ai intrecut limitele nu mai ai ce discuta cu mine..De obicei gandesc inainte sa vorbesc..Imi plac discutiile aprinse..parca pun sangele in miscare..a nu se confunda discutiile aprinse cu certurile.Ma bazez destul de mult pe intuitie..am idealuri destul de mari..In ultima vreme m-am regasit in bratele lui Dumnezeu..Cred ca ajunge..In timp veti afla mai multe despre mine..

"Don't be afraid of the wind,learn to trust it"-Captain Archer,Star Trek:Enterprise,"I have gods in me that haven't seen the light of the day yet..."by me.
Am sentimentul asta de cand ma stiu..il urasc..si il iubesc in acelasi timp.Il urasc pentru ca m-a facut sa sufar nespus de mult pana acum..incet..a consumat tot ce a prins in calea sa..Il iubesc pentru ca m-a facut cum sunt acum..o vreme ma uram,imi puneam la indoiala propria existenta..acum am ajuns sa ma iubesc..asta nu inseamna ca nu mai am nici o urma de indoiala..Acest sentiment m-a guvernat pana acum si o va mai face mult timp inainte,probabil toata viata..Fiecare actiune pe care am intreprins-o pana acum,buna sau rea,ii este inchinata..De multe ori ma intreb cum m-as simti,cum as actiona,cum as fi daca acest sentiment nu ar face parte din mine..Nu ma pot imagina altfel..acest eu nu face parte din mine.E posibil ca eu sa ma insel si sa simt cu totul altceva,sunt posibile mult prea multe chestii si nu stiu care ar putea fi adevarate si asta ma face sa-mi reevaluez valorile iar si iar sa epurez orice eroare care s-ar fi putut strecura.Am ajuns la concluzia ca asa s-au simtit si marii poeti,scriitori,inventatori,filosofi,oamenii de stiinta a lumii si a Romaniei.Realizand acest lucru am inceput sa-i admir cum nu credeam ca o sa o fac vreodata...Toti au avut acelasi sentiment si au ajuns faimosi si au ajutat omenirea foarte mult deoarece au urmat calea dictata de acesta.Probabil mai sunt destui oameni in lume care se simt ca mine si urmeaza calea spre nemurire.Adevarul e ca nu e chiar usor sa urmezi o asemenea cale,te poti impiedica chiar inainte sa incepi sau chiar la sfarsit cand mai ai foarte putin.In ceea ce priveste cazul meu nu stiu daca am urmat-o cum trebuie asa ca ma bat cu capul de peretii fictivi ai mintii mele in fiecare zi pentru a afla chiar daca acest lucru e aproape echivalent cu imposibilul.Trebuie sa o urmez orbecaind prin intuneric,nu am alta alegere.Sa fiu sincer in momentul acesta nu sunt absolut sigur ca tot ce gandesc eu sunt doar niste aberatii sau adevarul gol-golut.Un mare semn de intrebare sta si deasupra a ce am scris pana acum.Am tot vorbit de acest sentiment dar nu v-am spus numele lui.Simt ca tot ce stiu pana acum nu e deajuns,nu o sa fie niciodata de ajuns oricat de mult as sti.Vreau sa stiu doar de dragul de a sti.Multi ma vor si ma considera nebun.Nu pot sa le dau dreptate pentru ca nici eu nu stiu daca sunt nebun sau nu.
From the moment you leave home, practice mindfulness, keeping bodhicitta constantly in mind by thinking continuously, “The purpose of my life is to free all sentient beings from suffering and bring them happiness.” Think like this with everybody you see— This is the secret to enjoying life, to living a happy life in a meaningful way without allowing your ego to cheat you.
After a few years of meditation practice we can even learn how to occasionally ignore ourselves. And what relief that can be! =)
-Lama Zopa Rinpoche
The beauty of life is, while we cannot undo what is done,
we can see it, understand it, learn from it and change.
So that every new moment is spent not in regret, guilt, fear or anger,
but in wisdom, understanding and love
-Jennifer Edwards
Cool loneliness allows us to look honestly and without aggression at our own minds. We can gradually drop our ideals of who we think we ought to be, or who we think we want to be, or who we think other people think we want to be or ought to be. We give it up and just look directly with compassion and humor at who we are. Then loneliness is no threat and heartache, no punishment.
Why be unhappy about something when it can be remedied? His Holiness the Dalai Lama notes that if we avoid or turn away from The Eight Worldly Concerns in our spiritual practice, we can reduce suffering. SIMPLE SOLUTION: What are you attached to? What do have aversions to? See if they mirror the Eight Worldly Concerns:
1. Attachment to getting and keeping material things. 2. Aversion to not getting material things or being separated from them. 3. Attachment to praise, hearing nice words, and feeling encouraged. 4. Aversion to getting blamed, ridiculed, and criticized. 5. Attachment to having a good reputation. 6. Aversion to having a bad reputation. 7. Attachment to sense pleasures in general. 8. Aversion to unpleasant experiences
Let your love flow outward through the universe,
To its height, its depth, its broad extent,
A limitless love, without hatred or enmity.
Then as you stand or walk,
Sit or lie down,
As long as you are awake,
Strive for this with a one-pointed mind;
Your life will bring heaven to earth
-Sutta Nipata
It may look as if we're doing nothing on the cushion, but in fact we're cultivating peace. From that point of view, the practice of meditation is a courageous activity.
Through peaceful abiding, we learn to rest fearlessly in our natural state, which is basic goodness.
If we can learn to relax our discursive mind, we will find that underneath it all, we already happy.
Each time you return to the breath, you're taking one step away from addiction to discursiveness and fear and one step forward on the path of enlightenment.
The path of meditation isn't necessarily about becoming a Buddhist. It's about awakening to who we already are: buddha-"awakened one."
"The root of all faults, all failings, is nothing other than ignorance. This ignorance is like mistaking a heap of stones on the horizon for a human figure; it has no basis whatsoever, which means that even the source of these faults and failings does not exist."
Our problems, in other words, all come from nothing; they are all based on a misunderstanding that does not even exist. The more I think about what Padmasambhava said, the more I realise how true it is. With all our ideas, with all our misunderstandings, how often do we ever grasp more than a partial and distorted version of how things really are? Our whole vision of reality in fact amounts to a fabrication, an exaggeration, a fantastic edifice of delusion. Once we miss understanding, we create something based on that missing of the point, which can not but be a lie and an illusion. And in turn, we swallow the lie and fall for the illusion and take it to be true, like the fool who spends his life chasing after the fabled crock of gold that is buried at the end of a rainbow.
Every time you think of someone else’s happiness, you are taking a vacation from the “me” plan. Thinking about how to help others relieves stress, brings joy, and has fantastic karmic repercussions. Contemplating love gives us the biggest of minds. The farther our love extends, the bigger our heart grows. Bodhichitta is a stream of love and compassion that connects us all, without fixation or attachment.
